Compared with GB 10631-2013, the main changes are structural adjustments and editorial modifications. Aside from the changes, the main technical changes are as follows:

---The classification method has been changed. Friction-related products and small fireworks have been reclassified as a major category, and the subcategories have been further refined, resulting in 11 major categories and 25 subcategories. The subcategories refine the C-level classification method, dividing C-level into C1 and C2 levels (see 4.1, 4.2, and

4.2 in the.2013 edition);

---Added mixed-package packaging options and clarified the technical requirements for mixed-package marking, packaging, etc. (see 6.1);

---Added safety and quality requirements for exported products (see 6.3);

---The specific details of the testing methods have been removed (see Chapter 6 of the.2013 edition); Please note that some content in this document may involve patents. The issuing organization of this document assumes no responsibility for identifying patents. This document was proposed and is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Emergency Management of the People's Republic of China.

1 Scope

China's mandatory national standard for the safety and quality of fireworks. China makes the overwhelming majority of the world's fireworks, and this is the document that governs them - one of the most consequential product safety standards in the country, because the hazard exists at every stage from the factory to the person holding the item. The requirements run in two directions. One is composition: the pyrotechnic substances permitted and those forbidden, which is where the standard does most of its work, since the mixtures that are cheapest and most spectacular are frequently the ones that are unstable in storage or sensitive to friction. The other is behaviour: the fuse burning time that must give the user time to retreat, the absence of explosion in the hand or the tube, the height and direction of the effect, and the debris that falls back. Consumer classes are separated from display classes because the two are used by entirely different people.

This document defines the terminology for fireworks and firecrackers, provides a classification system, and specifies grading, safety and quality requirements, shelf life, and descriptions. It describes the testing methods and rules. This document applies to the production, sale, transportation, and setting off of fireworks and firecrackers.
